How to consume english arhar dal without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Begin by reducing the portion size of the arhar dal to minimize the carbohydrate load in one sitting.

Add Fiber

Include high-fiber foods in your meal, such as vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or cauliflower. These can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Proteins

Add a source of lean protein to your meal, such as grilled chicken, tofu, or fish. Proteins can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Introduce healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds to your meal. These can provide a slow energy release and help prevent spikes.

Vinegar

Adding a splash of vinegar to your dal or salad dressing can help reduce glucose spikes.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water throughout your meal as it can aid in digestion and help manage blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after your meal to help your body use glucose more effectively.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to allow your body time to process the food and signal when you are full.

Meal Timing

Spread out your meals and snacks throughout the day to avoid consuming large amounts of carbohydrates all at once.

Monitor Blood Sugar

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after meals to better understand how your body responds to different foods and make necessary adjustments.
